Poet:

Trust adjust her "Peradventure" —

Phantoms entered "and not you."

Poet:

Trust in the Unexpected —

By this — was William Kidd

Persuaded of the Buried Gold —

As One had testified —


Through this — the old Philosopher —

His Talismanic Stone

Discerned — still withholden...

Poet:

Trusty as the stars

Who quit their shining working

Prompt as when I lit them

In Genesis' new house,

Durable as dawn

Whose antiquated blossom

Makes a world's suspense

Perish and rejoice.

...
Poet:

Truth — is as old as God —

His Twin identity

And will endure as long as He

A Co-Eternity —


And perish on the Day

Himself is borne away

From Mansion of the Universe

A lifeless Deity....

Poet:

“'Twas the new moon!

Since then I waited—

And lo! to-night!

[I have my reward!].”[1]

Poet:

Twice had Summer her fair Verdure

Proffered to the Plain —

Twice a Winter's silver Fracture

On the Rivers been —


Two full Autumns for the Squirrel

Bounteous prepared —

Nature, Had'st thou not a Berry...

Poet:

Blasted with sighs, and surrounded with tears,
Hither I come to seek the spring,

And at mine eyes, and at mine ears,
Receive such balms as else...

Poet:

Two butterflies went out at Noon —

And waltzed upon a Farm —

Then stepped straight through the Firmament

And rested, on a Beam —


And then — together bore away

Upon a shining Sea —

Though never yet,...

Poet:

It was shearing time at the Myall Lake,

And then rose the sound through the livelong day

Of the constant clash that the shear-blades make

When the fastest shearers are making play;

But there wasn't a man in the shearers' lines...
